We want to make you aware of a change to the timescales for transition to the revised QMS and EMS standards, ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 14001:2015 that have been introduced recently by the International Accreditation Forum (IAF), which is the global association of accreditation bodies.

When ISO 9001, the world’s first management system standard, was launched in 1987, who could have imagined that it would lead to the development of over 60 MSS that have raised standards across all sectors all over the world?

Speaking at a conference in London organised by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) recently, Marcus Long, CEO of the Independent International Organisation for Certification (IIOC), demonstrated the tangible benefits of accredited certification to ISO standards on organisations, and relatedly the impact this has on insurers.
